Every bean carries a story.

Our coffee is more than a beverage, it is the expression of history, dedication, and family legacy. The oldest variety on our farm, Colombia, was planted by my father and remains one of our most productive lots. Its yellow ripe cherries, generous size, and distinctive attributes in the cup reflect both tradition and resilience.

Every harvest is sustained by constant care: from weeding and vine removal, to fertilization, pulp management, and the renewal of coffee plots. Shade is provided by plantain trees, and great attention is given to protecting against rust and borer. Each of these practices is an act of commitment that ensures quality and continuity.

Behind every cup lies not only unique flavor profiles, but also the story of perseverance, heritage, and the passion of those who cultivate it.

I believe that every coffee is made unique by its story and origin, as well as by the effort and dedication of each producer. For me, each coffee is special not only because of its diverse cup profiles, but also because of everything that has taken place for it to reach the cup.

The oldest variety on our farm is the Variedad Colombia. I remember it was planted by my father, and today it remains one of the most productive lots. Beyond its cup attributes, its cherries ripen to a distinctive yellow color and are known for their good size.

Between harvests, we carry out essential maintenance practices such as plateadas (cleaning the weeds around the coffee trees), desbejucada (removing vines that tangle around the plants), fertilization, pulp collection, lot renewal through replanting or zoqueo, rust and borer control, and the planting and maintenance of plantain as a shade crop.

The farm La Linda

The farm is a legacy from my father, who dedicated his entire life to working the land. He purchased it from a cousin, which means it has been part of our family for more than 30 years. A true heritage of perseverance and love, it is nestled among majestic mountains.

The farm is accessible by an unpaved road that can be traveled by cars and trucks, and it is located just one hour and fifteen minutes from the city of Pereira.

A few words about Alejandra Ramirez

"Since childhood, I have memories of walking through coffee fields and mountains with my family, deeply admiring my father’s work cultivating coffee and creating jobs in Santuario. The farm and the passion for coffee are a legacy I proudly inherited from him.

While studying Business Administration, I had the chance to create an entrepreneurship project, and it was then that I discovered the magic of coffee transformation. Roasting and brewing coffee from our own farm was both surprising and exciting — it opened a new path for me. After finishing my degree, I dedicated myself to learning and working in this wonderful world of coffee.

Today, I also manage my husband’s family farms, and together we created Zurcos, a brand of origin coffee through which we have won hearts with excellent cups and with our story.

I feel proud of coffee because it connects cultures, crosses borders, and unites producers and consumers through a single cup. I feel proud to generate employment and well-being for our collaborators, and to contribute to positioning Colombia as the home of an excellent beverage. Through coffee, I have discovered not only flavors but also unforgettable stories and inspiring human connections".
